CNN
Leora Krygier bought a postcard written by a World War II British solider at a LA thrift store in 2003, and embarked on a year-long, continent-spanning mission to track down its writer.
(CNN) — It was 2003, and Leora Krygier was rummaging around a thrift store near her home in Los Angeles. Krygier wasn't looking for anything in particular, but a box of old vintage postcards caught her attention. "I've always been interested in vintage and postcards. Nobody sends postcards anymore, really. There's sort of a beautiful little vintage remnant of the world," Krygier tells CNN Travel.More Related News
